Answer:

A) 18%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find percent change by subtracting to find the change, then put that over the original amount and times by 100.

79 - 65 is 14

change/original is

14/79

= .177

Then times 100 to make the decimal into a percent.

0.177×100 is 17.7%

which rounds to 18%.

Find the sum of this infinite geometric series where a1=0.3 and r=0.1

ratelena [41]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for computing the sum of an infinite geometric series is

$S=\frac{a_1}{1-r}$ where r is between -1 and 1 and $r$ is the common ratio, and $a_1$ is the first term of the series.

So let's plug in:

$S=\frac{0.3}{1-0.1}$

$S=\frac{0.3}{0.9}$

$S=\frac{3}{9}$ I multiplied bottom and top by 10.

$S=\frac{1}{3}$ I divided top and bottom by 3.

The sum is 1/3.

Find real or imaginary solutions of x^4-10x^2=-9

malfutka [58]

This resembles a quadratic and we can factor it using that pattern.

$(x^2)^2-(10x^2)+9=0$

$(x^2-9)(x^2-1)$

$(x+3)(x-3)(x+1)(x-1)=0$
